Hello, All!
Announcing a new fun year with the HS Toastmasters, including a new
time, location, yet several of the homeschoolers from all ages who
are having a lot of fun learning public speaking and presentation.
This year, we've moved to the Erna Fergussen Library, rather
centrally located on San Mateo, south of Montgomery, and we're
meeting on the
FIRST & THIRD TUESDAYS
from 3pm-5pm!
The kids run the whole show, from holding office, introducing each
other, and of course working on their speech and presentations.
Adult toastmaster members help from the sidelines only if needed.
We started ourselves for two reasons: 1. I have always been
impressed by the confidence and excellent verbal skills of some
teens who were in Toastmasters; and 2. I thought my daughter Lynne
could use some of those skills and definitely some of that
confidence! We've only been a part of this group for a few months,
but it has made a terrific impact and Lynne used those growing
skills at the XPrize and at the Science Fair competitions. She likes
going because she has fun, and she likes the fact that there are
kids of all ages there (grade school to high school)!
The cost of coming down and checking it out is free, and if you want
to join it's about $5 per year to join Toastmasters and I think it
was $7 for the workbook. Definitely affordable!
Come on down Tuesday, March 4th, or email the vice-president for
more info. She's a high schooler who can tell you about it much
better than I can! Her email is: saralouise92@yahoo.com.
Happy Homeschooling!
:) -Chris
